First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether eating more protein (1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight each day) can help older adults with type 2 diabetes prevent muscle loss and improve blood sugar control. Twenty-five participants followed the high-protein diet for a period, and researchers measured changes in muscle mass, strength, and diabetes markers. The goal was to see if a simple dietary change could help manage both sarcopenia and diabetes progression.
